Hi. What colour is the sofa and accessories or are they still to be bought?

Hi. What about a yellow based neutral such as farrow and ball string? You could pair this with Hague blue on the window wall which would make the units really stand out

Hi Layla,

I think the colour you might be looking for is Greige? (as the name suggests) its a mix of Grey & Beige - sometimes called mushroom, taupe etc... Its just a bit warmer than straight grey so should add depth to your room. Try Dulux Egyptian Cotton, or Farrow & Ball Shaded White.

Hi Layla it's not really possible to pick a paint colour from looking at a photograph as we are all seeing your photograph slightly differently according to what screen we are using. (The colour of the units varies too according to what light is on it - daylight / artificial). You're right to be wary of putting white with the cream units (they'll look yellow, or the paint will look dingy) - picking the wrong shade of grey or beige could have the same result.

The main thing is to get the right tone to go with your units - it's much easier to show someone this in person, but try get a whole bunch of cream or beige colour cards and putting them next to your unit. You'll see that some look like they have a hint of blue, pink, yellow or green to them. Some will be very obviously wrong. You should be able to see which ones tone with the units.

Get one or two paint samples of the ones you think work best, paint them onto paper (not the wall!) and use white tack to stick the pieces of painted paper up in a couple of different places in your room. Look at them in daylight and electric light, and on a bright sunny day and a dull one.

It may take a few days, but will save a lot of waste getting the colour wrong.

Hi Layla Shkoukani

As Fresh Traditions says, its is better to show someone is person the colours you have to work with. However, we have a couple of kitcheninspiration images below and I have included a few of our colour swatches from our Little Greene paint range that may work. We also stock Mylands paints that have some beautiful neutral shades.

Thanks!

Egyptian cotton is a great colour. I don't have a dulux paint chart to hand but I'd have a look at timeless, it's a creamy white without a yellow undertone. Dulux have matched it to their natural hessian and warm pewter so I assume it would work well!

Why not try something out of the box you have a lovely big kitchen and a blue or a darker shade /accent colour would look nice on a couple of walls like on one of the pics. I will be waiting to see a photo if you do one to see what you choose and end result. As I have the same kitchen and I am thinking of being abit brave and out of the box for my next kitchen colour. At the moment we have white and I'm not too keen. Had cream but as the units are cream it was abit to much.

A light sage green?

It might be worth getting a tester of F&B stiffkey blue, I think it could work well, worth a try anyway!

I think the downpipe could work very well with all the above, back to the testers then!

Why not painting the kitchen in Tiffany Blue and one accent wall in Chalkboard paint? That should nicely offset all that yummy white and cream you have going on in there and you say your oven is navy blue. Would make a bold statement. Like we say in California, go big or go home :) Just a suggestion:
